Latest platform numbers are in: KitKat climbs to 8.5%

It's time for the monthly platform version number report from the folks at big G, and we don't see any surprises. KitKat is still on the rise, climbing from 5.3-percent a month ago to 8.5-percent. Froyo drops down to 1-percent, and the general shift of later versions seeing more traffic and older versions seeing less continues. As more phones are released with current software, and popular older models are being updated, we expect things to continue just as they are.
